USPS

Okay, these aren't my own words, but I want to borrow them because they explain the past week and a half of my life perfectly:



"A watched pot never boils. True statement. Nor does the mail come while you watch for the mailman (or mail lady in my case). Nor does a letter come when you REALLY want one when the mail finally does show up. After all my experience in letter writing you'd think I would have accepted those 2 facts. Nope. And today I was reminded of the truth of those statements. In my defense... it isn't very often that I get THAT obsessed with the mail... but I just... bah... really wanted a letter today. Oh well... it will probably get here on Monday. That's usually how it goes. Patience is a virtue... and I'm DEFINITELY learning it."

These are the words of my friend Emily Tribe...oh how she words this perfectly. I want a stinkin letter....
